Hello everyone! Marcia here today. I have a tutorial to share with you today for the A2 Birthday Presents Wish Card (SVG, Silhouette). This cut file can be found in Lori’s store along with some new 5×7 Pop-up cards with the same inside blocks that pop up when the card is opened. I used pattern papers from Lori’s Birthday Boy collection as well as coordinating cardstock from my stash. The front of the card looks like any normal card. I added a few die-cut ephemera to go along with the birthday presents from the cut file.

Let me show you how this card is assembled.

1. Choose your papers and cut all pieces out. I used the Silhouette print and cut feature to get the sentiment Sending you a Birthday printed on my white Neenah cardstock. I like to ink the edges of some of my pieces especially if the paper has a white core. Inking the edges also adds depth.

2. Let’s assemble the inside of the card first. Adhere your colored squares between the cut lines. Fold the big squares out and the thinner base of the card in. Using a bone folder to get a good crease really helps. Fold the card base in half on the scored line as well.

4. Apply glue to the white cardstock and fold the card closed. Flip the card base over and repeat adhering the other side to the card base.

5. Assemble the birthday presents for the front of the card. Adhere the front panel to the card base. Use the birthday presents alone, or add other fun birthday die-cut ephemera.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Be sure to check out Lori’s Store for more amazing cut files.
